DS is just over 3 weeks old and of course like everyone I have been bleeding after the birth. The first week was heavy and the past couple weeks I have worn pads still but not too much loss - it was mostly a dull brown, pink colour.

Today I went to the toilet and found my pad with lots of bright red blood (though not heavily soaked) and when I wiped there was more bright red blood. Is this normal? I read on the internet that red bloos loss should go away after a week then it changes colour even though you can still bleed for up to 6 weeks.

Should I be concerned? What could it be? I feel fine though did feel a bit dizzy this morning which I thought was due to being a bit anxious (trying to get organised!!)
